The two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide nanosheet-carbon composite is an attractive material for energy storage because of its high Faradaic activity, unique nanoconstruction and electronic properties. In this work, a facile one step preparation of a molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheet-graphene (MoS2/G) composite with the in situ reduction of graphene oxide is reported. The s...

Platelet aggregation is initiated by the release of mediators as adenosine diphosphate (ADP) stored in platelet granules. Possible candidates for transport proteins mediating accumulation of these mediators in granules include multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4, ABCC4), a transport pump for cyclic nucleotides and nucleotide analogs. We investigated the expression of MRP4 in human platelets by...

Physiological and environmental stresses have been shown to alter the catecholamine metabolism of brain. For example, electric shocks (1) and cold exposure (2) significantly reduce the brain content of norepinephrine. In mice, psychosocial stimulation leads to a marked increase in the catecholamine content and in the enzymatic activities of phenylethanolamine-N-methyl transferase (PNMT), monoam...

Fractional repetition (FR) codes are a class of distributed storage codes that replicate and distribute information data over several nodes for easy repair, as well as efficient reconstruction. In this paper, we propose three new constructions of FR codes based on relative difference sets (RDSs) with λ = 1. Specifically, we propose new (q2 − 1, q, q) FR codes using cyclic RDS with parameters (q...

diatomaceous earth (de) is a dust composed of fossilized bodies of unicellular algae used as an insecticide. in this study, the insecticidal potential of four iranian de deposits was assessed in adults of oryzaephilus surinamensis (l.). three of de deposits were collected from maragheh, mamaghan, and khorasan jonoobi mines and sayan® formulation was obtained from kimia sabz avar company. the in...

Recently, error correcting codes in the erasure channel have drawn great attention for various applications such as distributed storage systems and wireless sensor networks, but many of their decoding algorithms are not practical because they have higher decoding complexity and longer delay. Thus, the automorphism group decoder (AGD) for cyclic codes in the erasure channel was introduced, which...

we present a 24-year-old female referred with non-healing wound of a few days duration on anterior aspect of her right foreleg. biopsy of the wound was reported to be pyoderma gangrenosum on pathologic report. further work up of the patient for high grade fever and occasional leukopenias revealed the diagnosis of cyclic neutropenia. treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (g-csf) r...

With the ever-increasing demands of grid-scale energy storage, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have garnered increasing attention around world. However, limited Zn2+ host materials hindered commercialization ZIBs. Hence, Mo-V oxides with different phase structures (orth-, tri-, and tetra-MoVO) were precisely constructed to develop phase-dependent oxide cathodes for storage in The open framewo...

in this paper, the notion of cyclic $varphi$-contraction in fuzzymetric spaces is introduced and a fixed point theorem for this typeof mapping is established. meantime, an example is provided toillustrate this theorem. the main result shows that a self-mappingon a g-complete fuzzy metric space has a unique fixed point if itsatisfies the cyclic $varphi$-contraction. afterwards, some results inco...
